Akil Cole (CAS ’24) crafted a thesis bridging knowledge and methods from Justice & Peace Studies and Environmental Studies

Peace on Earth (words surrounded by a laurel wreath, held aloft by hands and a plant pot)

His thesis took the form of a brief, four-episode podcast miniseries called Peace of Earth. In it, Akil invites listeners to think differently about peace, sustainability, and the world’s social and environmental challenges. He does so by introducing comparative case study research he conducted on two environmental organizations that use gardening, farming, and other land-based projects to positively impact their respective communities (in Columbia, Maryland and Cape Town, South Africa).

Listen now to see how these organizations are making their communities more resilient against oppressive systems!
